The BBC followed up a project I did for @ANDFestival; I setup a series of DropDays to try to seed Aram Bartholls excellent #DeadDrops project and make it go viral in the Northwest. @hwayoung and I were interviewed outside @MadLabUK to do a quick Mad Drop Repair… Who knows it might pickup again with some elusive regional TV airtime! Long live the DeadDrop!

Here I am plugging the concept at Ignite Liverpool last year…

Caller Birds @ Analogue Is the New Digital

Installing Caller Birds at Analogue is the New Digital show at Madlab Edge Street Manchester

Norman Kendall’s Albert Decap Robot Organ was a massive hit of the opening night of the show and AND; with a crowd of people chanting ‘one more song’ as it was pulled down for the night. Really made people smile and talk and attracted curious non-art scene locals from all over the Northern Quarter

The tweetable organ grinder monkey remains in the show responding to @DECAPSOUND #ANDfestival

 #ANALOG so get tweeting and get him moving!
